See the house in background, with guy sitting on the porch? We went through that with idea of buying it, just because it was downtown and across from park. I'd have done it, but Suzie though the kitchen and stairs were a mess to work around.
Snapshot of a large outdoor map at Mississippi River Lock & Dam No. 4 in Alma, Wisconsin. I live in La Crosse but I also hang out every now and then near Pepin, Wisconsin, where my family has a summer house on Lake Pepin.

Built in 1955-1957, this Modern International Style seven-story building was designed by Holabird, Root and Burgee and Law, Law, Porter and Nystrom to serve both as Madison City Hall and the Dane County Courthouse. The building was later expanded with a rooftop addition on the rear wing, though offices of both the City of Madison and Dane County have moved to the newer Madison Municipal Building and Dane County Courthouse located on adjacent blocks to the north and south of the building. The building is clad in limestone with ribbon windows interrupted at regular gridded intervals by columns clad in limestone, a low-slope roof enclosed by a parapet, dark polished stone cladding on the one-story front wing along Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, which features limestone cladding at the edges of the roof, a second story projected bay that cantilevers over the front entrance and is clad in limestone with vertical baffles between narrow and tall windows, aluminum entrance doors with large transoms and sidelights, aluminum modernist lettering mounted on the facade, and an original three-story rear wing clad in limestone panels with gridded fenestration and a setback third floor, with the addition being differentiated from the original building through its use of larger concrete panel cladding and smaller windows on the upper floors. The building continues to house some functions and offices of the City of Madison and Dane County government, and is an excellent example of a modernist city-county building, complimenting its older neighbors in scale and materiality.
